Zhang Xiaobao was shocked, and his gaze towards Seimo Domoka was no longer friendly.
Seimo Domoka didn't know what was going on and was still explaining, "I said that I am willing to listen to your orders and kill the sick people."
"Don't. Don't say you'll listen to my orders. I'm not that heartless. If you were my enemy, I'd just be happy if you all died. But now, you're my people, and not my slaves."
Zhang Xiaobao said firmly to Seimo Domoka as he stared at him.
Seimo Domoka was stunned. "Then, then why do you want me to gather the sick people?"
"To treat them. Most of the people here are still young. They died because of illness or other problems, so those who are alive now don't have any serious illnesses. We have a medical team that can give you simple treatment.
Not only the sick, but also your people. You all have to cut their hair and take a hot bath. I have medicine specially used for bathing. After that, change into new clothes. If you don't have new clothes, find a cloth to cover yourself. "
Zhang Xiaobao once again felt the cruelty of the slave system. This kind of disregard for life was even more thorough than his and Cuckoo's.
He and Cuckoo had killed people, and he had used all kinds of methods to destroy the enemy. But that didn't mean that he didn't know how to respect life. He also felt uncomfortable when he killed people. He only did it for the benefit of the Tang Empire. There was no right or wrong.
He had never said that he would torture people after they surrendered. Even if it was mining, he would give them enough food. He used the captives' physical strength, not their lives. The work they were doing was indeed dangerous, but that kind of danger was probabilistic. It was dangerous for anyone to do it, not just because of the captives.
But the rulers of the slave system didn't treat slaves as people at all. They killed them so easily that it was no different from killing a chicken. It was no different from using boiling oil to feed a live donkey meat.
Wang Juan also frowned. She had never thought that her hands were clean. If a soldier didn't have blood on his hands, what kind of soldier was he? He had also massacred a Tubo village before, killing both the old and the young. However, that was against outsiders. Now, Seymour Duomo understood the meaning of a massacre within the village.
No wonder Duoduo didn't want to go back to the tribe. No wonder the local tribesmen didn't have such a strong sense of resistance. It wasn't that they didn't understand unity, but that their leaders abandoned them too easily.
If they didn't have religious beliefs, they would have been finished long ago.
"Did you hear that? We're not asking you to kill him. We're treating him." Wang Juan looked at Simo Domo with a cold gaze.
Seymour Duomo couldn't help but shudder. After he reacted, he nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, I know. You are the one who treated them. Let me say this first, I have nothing to exchange for this … this … this … help when you do things."
"Our medical services are free. We don't expect you to give us anything. You arrange it." Zhang Xiaobao continued. Then, he didn't want to look at Seymour Duomo anymore. He pulled Wang Juan and left.
Seymour Duomo stood where he was and watched the two people leave, as well as the guards hiding in the dark one after another. He sighed and muttered, "If I had known that you weren't going to kill, I wouldn't have said kill. Anyway, the old and weak will die slowly. I'll see if you can save them when we're on our way. You don't understand the cruelty here."
Seymour Duomo felt that he was right. In fact, he also wanted to kill a lot of burdens. He felt that it was useless to keep those people alive. In the past, he always sent the old, powerless and sick people outside so that they could contribute to him at the last moment of their lives.
With a sneer, Seymour Duomo touched the small bottle that contained the medicine to treat him and walked unhurriedly to his' palace '.
*****
"A race that doesn't know how to love cannot survive. They will eventually be ruled or controlled by others. I guess he's still thinking that we don't understand the situation here. There are many weak and old people in the team and they think that our kindness is a joke.
But he definitely doesn't think that without this kindness, we wouldn't have the status we have in Tang today. Should we give up on the old and weak? If we lost a battle and were running away, maybe we would choose to give up. But we definitely can't be so calm. I believe that every night, I will be awakened by nightmares.
I saw Seymour Duomo's hesitation. At that moment, I didn't know whether he didn't want to kill or whether he was considering who to kill and whether he wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of the disobedient.
Therefore, only a ruler who recognizes his own power and responsibility is qualified to survive in this world. Otherwise, when the people know that there is another ruler who cares for their people, they will inevitably rebel.
At the same time, the foundation of the country will be shaken. You will find that even if you don't give him advanced weapons, many people in the country will die from violence. There will be more violent deaths than when you give him advanced weapons but know how to care for the people or fear the people. "
Zhang Xiaobao was provoked by Seymour Duomo. When he spoke, he was thinking about how to find a chance to kill Seymour Duomo. This kind of person can't be left alive.
If he wanted to achieve a certain political goal, he could send Seymour Duomo to do things that would harm others. When he reached the point of infuriation, he would appear and kill Seymour Duomo. He believed that he would gain the favor of those who were bullied by him.
But obviously, he couldn't do that. If he did that, his heart would be dirty. Sending someone to do it and using the lives of the people who did it to achieve his goal was worse than doing it himself.
"You mean to give everyone in Tang a gun?" Wang Juan turned and asked.
"Why not? Do you think that you have to use a gun to kill people? As long as the laws against the people at the grass-roots level are fair, even if they have the means to kill people who make them angry, they won't use it. It's people who kill, not guns.
If possible, not only will I give the people of Tang guns, but I will also tell them that if an official bullies you and you don't have the chance to send a telegram and your life is threatened, then you should shoot. Shoot at that official and shoot at the person who threatens your life! "
Zhang Xiaobao made a shooting action as he spoke, and there was a cold smile on his face.
"If we do as you say, Tang will be in chaos. Well, at least that's what the corrupt officials of Tang will think. You don't need to say it, I'll say it for you. "
Wang Juan smacked Zhang Xiaobao's hand that was about to raise the gun and said.
She actually understood that when people said that more people died from gunfire in other countries, it was actually a one-sided view. Countries without guns had more people dying from knives and bricks. When everyone had a gun, they naturally knew how to respect life. When everyone had their own car, they naturally wouldn't think that pedestrians had to let them go first.
Respect came from the same social status. Social status depended on hard work and effort. Whether hard work and effort produced results, or rather, the probability of producing theoretical results, depended on the policies of the ruling class of the society.
"That's why we have to cherish this era. We have to maintain the development of economy and technology, strengthen traditional morals, strengthen the law, and create a stable social environment. Even the rulers have to act in the interests of the majority when they do things."
Zhang Xiaobao concluded.
Wang Juan smiled. "Does that mean that Li Longji has no choice but to compromise?"
"Li Longji is actually quite cute." Zhang Xiaobao also smiled.
"How is he cute? What are you looking at? "As Wang Juan spoke, she saw Zhang Xiaobao looking around, so she followed suit.
"I'm looking to see if there are any spies. We have people in the palace providing information. Don't you think he's cute?"
"He has no choice."
"Can't he just get rid of us?"
"He's not stupid. He still wants to be the emperor. He's probably thinking of us right now and wants us to go back quickly so that he can travel."
"This means that his power is restricted. Even if he can tolerate the turmoil in the country, he can't tolerate the powerful weapons of an unknown country that can attack from thousands of miles away. When it reaches this level, he'll probably have other thoughts. "
"Then he has to wait."
"Wait. Aren't we all waiting?"
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan chatted all the way back to the camp, and they happened to see the little ones busying themselves there.
There was a large basin filled with a lot of yellow-black … scrambled eggs? On the other side was a chopping board. Xiao Bei and the others took the small root vegetables out of the water and handed them to Xu Yilong. Xu Yilong held the knife in one hand and the small root vegetables in the other, working hard to cut them.
"Be careful, don't cut your hand. Our knife is very fast. You cut it one by one. Don't think that you're as agile as the logistics master in the team. When you find that you feel uncomfortable cutting the vegetables, you have to stop and adjust. Don't think that there's only a little left and cut through it, understand?"
Xiao Bei held a few washed small roots in his hand and nervously watched Xu Yilong cut there. His mouth didn't stop talking.
Xu Yilong was sweating profusely. Looking at the muscles on his arms that were exposed when he rolled up his sleeves, she knew how nervous he was. But he still insisted, cutting while replying to Xiao Bei.
"I know, I've written it all down. You guys know more. I'm far worse than Xiao Qiang and Xiao Gang."
"Then you still want to cut, let them do it." Xiao Bei glanced at Xiao Qiang and Xiao Gang who were kneading the dough and said to Xu Yilong.
"How can I let you do dangerous things? Otherwise, when Xiao Bao and Cuckoo see it, I don't dare to imagine the consequences. If the knife is not sharpened so fast, will it … "
"It will cut off your hand. A blunt knife hurts people. Xiao Bei and the others usually use very fast knives. Not to mention cutting hair, as long as your hand touches it, it will definitely be cut."
Zhang Xiaobao's voice came.
"Brother, sister, you're back. We were cutting the stuffing. We wanted to cut it, but we found that if we cut it, all the vegetables will fly away, so we had to cut it. Why, brother?"
Xiao Bei grabbed the small root vegetables and ran in front of Zhang Xiaobao. As he spoke, he put the small root vegetables in front of Zhang Xiaobao's mouth and let him eat.
Zhang Xiaobao dodged back, "Who put the garlic together with the small root vegetables? The color and size are different. Let's take a good look. "
"Oh, I know the garlic, but there are only a few. It's not good to eat raw as it's too spicy. This thing is useless. Brother, why do you think it flew away when you cut it?" Xiao Bei retracted his hand and looked. That's right, the garlic is there, purple skin.
"This is physics knowledge. If you want something to fly out when it's under force, you have to control the transmission of force and the physical characteristics of the current object. On the other hand, if you don't let something fly, you also have to control it. The easier it is to cut something, the harder it is to fly, so you have to fix it when processing metal parts. Then, there are two ways to cut vegetables. One is to do it like me. "
As Zhang Xiaobao spoke, he stepped forward and picked up the other kitchen knife beside him. He took the mixture of root and garlic from Xiao Bei's hands and placed it on the chopping board. The knife rose and fell, and after a few swings, the mixture was cut into small pieces. Then, he continued to cut it into smaller pieces.
"This is the familiarity of the tool and the thing being cut. It also requires strong control. Practice makes perfect. It's very simple, but you need to persevere."
"Wow, brother is so awesome." Xiao Bei clapped his hands and shouted.
Xu Yilong stopped and listened carefully. She knew how Xiao Bao's cooking skills were, but she had only eaten before. She had never seen Xiao Bao cook. Today, it was an eye-opener. Why couldn't it fly? The knife was obviously not used for cutting.
Zhang Xiaobao continued, "There's another way. It's much simpler. Bring all the vegetables you've washed over."
The few little guys brought the things up and piled them together. Zhang Xiaobao gathered them again and then began to cut with the knife. As he cut, he said, "This method is to use other things to block the vegetables that are about to fly out. Stack the vegetables together, and the knife cuts in the middle. In fact, they will fly, but they will be blocked. The premise is that the chopping board must be fixed firmly. Otherwise, with the force of the chopping board, the vibration produced will still shake the things away.
Observe more in your daily life. You will find that the thickness of the chopping board used to cut vegetables doesn't matter, but the chopping board used to cut vegetables must be thick wood, and it must be one piece, not a few pieces of bamboo stuck together.
But we can't put metal plates, springs, and shock absorbers on the chopping board. That will reduce the kinetic energy of the falling knife. We need a tool table that can mitigate the force and hold it in. Only then can we use it to cut.
This is actually the simplest physics analysis and application. When cutting vegetables, there is also a need to guide the flow. Similarly, when cooking, heating is inseparable from physics. We also have to pay attention to the chemical reaction. When different ingredients are put together, poisonous substances will be produced. This is called the mutual promotion and restraint of ingredients.
The purpose of learning knowledge is to apply it. You have to do more often when you have nothing to do. Do it purposefully. This will not only promote your hands-on ability, but also deepen your grasp and understanding of knowledge. "
After Zhang Xiaobao finished speaking, the vegetables on the chopping board were also chopped. A few pieces flew, but most of them were not a problem. This was within the normal range. The vegetables that were chopped by the special grade chef would also fly. If he didn't want them to fly, he would cut them. Of course, there were also 'experts' who would cut things flying when cutting vegetables.
"We have to think more about how to play in the future." Xiao Bei understood and said happily.
Xu Yilong's face was full of gratitude. She knew that Xiao Bao said this for her to hear. She usually had access to a lot of books, but she just read them. She never thought that physics and chemistry could be used in cooking.
